Following its official venue signing at the historic Araneta Coliseum, Mr. and Ms. Chinatown Global (MMCG) proudly announced its new leadership under Pageant Director Nicole Cordoves and Assistant Pageant Director and Pageant Manager Cassandra Chan—signaling a bold new chapter for the CHiNOY TV-produced cultural pageant.
A Binibining Pilipinas alumna crowned Miss Grand Philippines 2016 and Miss Chinatown 2014, Cordoves is also the longest-running host of Binibining Pilipinas, having graced the Araneta stage for six consecutive editions. With her extensive experience in pageantry and media, she now steps into a larger role—leading a new generation of cultural ambassadors and shaping the vision for MMCG Year 2.
“Mr. and Ms. Chinatown Global is where tradition meets tomorrow—a platform that honors our heritage and empowers a new generation to lead with pride,” shares Cordoves. “This chapter is also about paying forward what I’ve learned in pageantry, alongside CHiNOY TV, shaping a space where culture, purpose, and representation meet.”
Joining her is Cassandra Chan, Miss Chinatown Philippines 2022 and Miss World Philippines Charity 2022. “What I love about Mr. and Ms. Chinatown Global is how it connects Chinese communities from all around the world through stories that feel modern yet deeply rooted in our heritage,” Chan shares. “It’s not just about beauty or competition—it’s about shared pride, creativity, and culture coming together on one global stage.”
Together, Cordoves’ mastery of pageantry and Chan’s dedicated role in guiding and supporting the aspiring candidates pave the way for a more global, purpose-driven chapter—building on a successful inaugural year that gathered candidates from the USA, Malaysia, the Philippines, Australia, China, Singapore, and Hong Kong. Mr. and Ms. Chinatown Global Year 2 officially begins on January 28, 2026, culminating in the Winners Night on February 10, 2026, at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
